Like many tasty recipes this one came to me one weeknight when I was trying to use up what veggies and meat I had in the fridge. Chicken and vegetables is a perfect base for many delicious meals. I always keep a few different sauces in the pantry, this night I saw the Siete green enchilada sauce. One of my favorite to have on hand.

It is as simple as cooking rice and then everything else goes into one pot. This recipe allows for you to customize it to what you have on hand and what vegetables you like. It would be great with zucchini, tomatoes, and spinach. Have fun with it. Enjoy.
